historic graph of Dynamo Dresden league operation The city of Dresden played a meaning part in german football before and during World War II. Local football team Dresdner SC won the national championships in 1943 and 1944. The occupying Allied authorities dissolved organizations across Germany, including sports clubs like Dresdner SC, after the war as character of the march of denazification. Dresdner SC was reestablished in 1946 as SG Friedrichstadt. however, the eastern separate of Germany, including Dresden, was under soviet dominance, and the sports club was considered excessively bourgeois by authorities. [ 6 ] SG Friedrichstaft met ZSG Horst Zwickau at the Heinz-Steyer-Stadion in Dresden on 16 April 1950. The match would practically decide which of the two teams that would win the east german backing in the 1949–50 season. The match was attended by 60,000 spectators at the Heinz-Steyer-Stadion. [ 7 ] besides the SED First secretary Walter Ulbricht and his cortege were show. [ 8 ] ZSG Horch Zwickau had been founded only one year earlier and embodied the form of constitution that the SED and the state of matter leadership wanted to promote for the sports movement they propagated. [ 8 ] ZSG Horch Zwickau won the match 1–5 and became east german champions. The match was characterized by a very physical play from ZSG Horch Zwickau and respective controversial referee decisions in prefer of ZSG Horch Zwickau. The players of SG Friedrichstadt left the pitch without greeting their opponents and thousands of angry Dresden spectators invaded the pitch. [ 7 ] [ 9 ] east german sports authorities took these events as a guise to dissolve SG Friedrichstadt and delegate the players to BSG VVB Tabak Dresden. [ 2 ] The city needed a new, ideologically safe congressman in the DDR-Oberliga. BSG VVB Tabak Dresden was planned to take over the set of SG Friedrichstadt in the DDR-Oberliga. however, most players from the former team of SG Friedrichstadt, including player-coach Helmut Schön, did not agree with the move and left Dresden to join Hertha BSC or other clubs under the German football Association ( DFB ). [ 7 ] To save the place in the DDR-Oberliga for Dresden, the place was rather given to SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Dresden. SV Deutsche Volkzpolizei Dresden was founded as SG Volkspolizei Dresden in October 1948. The sports residential district was incorporated into the new sports association SV Deutsche Volkspolizei in 1950 and renamed SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Dresden. SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Dresden played in the Stadtliga Dresden at the time of the dissolution of SG Fredrichsstadt. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Dresden was thus able to enter DDR-Oberliga without having to progress through divisions. [ 9 ] In ordain to put in concert a strong team for SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Dresden to the 1950-51 DDR-Oberliga, the 40 best players of the diverse Volkspolizei teams in East Germany were brought together for a training seance in Forst in July 1950. Coaches Fritz Sack and Paul Döring picked out 17 players from 11 different cities who were delegated to Dresden to form the team. [ 12 ] [ 7 ] [ 10 ] [ 2 ] SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Potsdam lost five players to Dresden, including Herbert Schoen, Johannes Matzen and Günter Schröter, and was sternly weakened. [ 9 ] [ 13 ] SV Deutsche Volkspolizei Dresden cursorily established itself as a force in east german football. The team won its first title in the 1951–52 FDGB-Pokal. [ 2 ] The new sports affiliation SV Dynamo was founded on 27 March 1953. SV Dynamo was formed from SV Deutsche Volkspolizei and the sports communities of the Secretariat of State Security, normally known as the Stasi. The president of the united states of SV Dynamo was Erich Mielke, at the time deputy head of the Stasi. [ 14 ] SV Deutsche Volkspolizei was incorporated into SV Dynamo and reformed as Dynamo Dresden on 12 April 1953. The official establish date of Dynamo Dresden has since been 12 April 1953. soon after this, the cabaret claimed its first gear league title. [ 2 ] Hovewer, the success, proved to be the club ‘s untying. The team of Dynamo Dresden was relocated to Berlin in November 1954 to play for SC Dynamo Berlin in the DDR-Oberliga. [ 2 ] [ 15 ] The remainder of Dynamo Dresden was left to regroup in the second-tier DDR-Liga, taking over the place in the DDR Liga, ampere well as points and goals, from dissolved SC DHFK Leipzig. [ 2 ] political factors and pressure from Erich Mielke were credibly the independent reasons behind the resettlement of Dynamo Dresden to Berlin. [ 16 ] [ 15 ] The resettlement was meant to provide the capital with a competitive team that could rival Hertha BSC, Blau-Weiß 1890 Berlin and Tennis Borussia Berlin, which were still popular in East Berlin and drew football fans to West Berlin. [ 17 ] [ 16 ] [ 15 ]
Dynamo Dresden were left with a team composed of youth and reserve players, and had dropped to the one-fourth tier by 1957, playing in the local Bezirksliga. [ 18 ] [ 2 ] Dynamo Dresden began to climb the divisions, though, [ 2 ] [ 19 ] and by 1962 they were back in the DDR-Oberliga, [ 19 ] and although this first season ended in delegating, they bounced back immediately. [ 19 ] They recovered equally well from another relegation in 1968, [ 19 ] and remained in the Oberliga from 1969 until its adjournment in 1991. This delegating came after a fourth-place finish in 1967, which enabled Dynamo ‘s first foray into european football – they entered the 1967–68 Fairs Cup, where they were eliminated by scottish side Rangers in the beginning turn. [ 19 ] east german football was reorganized during the 1965–66 season. Ten football departments were separated from their sports clubs to create ten dedicated football clubs ( FC ). The best talents in the nation were meant to be concentrated in the raw football cubs, with the object to bring constancy to the game at the top degree and to develop players for the home team. [ 15 ] Dynamo Dresden was declared a regional center of excellence ( german : Leistungszentrum ) in Bezirk Dresden by the regional dining table of the DTSB on 5 August 1968 and would enjoy the same privileges as a indicate football golf club, although it retained its appellation as a “ Sports Community ” ( german : Sportgemeinschaft ) ( SG ). [ 20 ] [ 21 ] The club could now draw on talents in the solid regional district. [ 21 ]

glory years ( 1969–1978 ) [edit ]

During the 1970s, Dynamo established themselves as one of the lead teams in East Germany, under the management of Walter Fritzsch. They won five league titles ( 1971, 1973, 1976, 1977 and 1978 ), [ 3 ] and two cups, ( 1971 and 1977 ). [ 3 ] They battled with 1. FC Magdeburg for domination of the league, and became the most popular the side in the area, regularly drawing crowd of 25,000, about three times what early clubs were attracting.

The Stasi had tapped the salon at the Interhotel Newa in Dresden were the Bayern Munich team held their final meeting before the second leg. And a message with information about the line-up of Bayern Munich was cursorily sent by motorbike to the coach of Dynamo Dresden Walter Fritzsch in preparation for the pit. [ 24 ] On three occasions they were eliminated by English side Liverpool, twice in the UEFA Cup and once in the european Cup, [ 23 ] and each time Liverpool went on to win the competition. In 1973, Hans-Jürgen Kreische was the first base Dynamo Dresden player to be named east german football player of the Year, and was followed by Hans-Jürgen Dörner in 1977.

capital laterality ( 1978–1991 ) [edit ]

BFC Dynamo stood out among early clubs within SV Dynamo. The golf club was located at the frontline of the Cold war and was a example of the capital of East Germany. This entail that the club had to be well equipped. [ 28 ] BFC Dynamo was considered the favorite golf club of the president of SV Dynamo and the head of the Stasi Erich Mielke. [ 29 ] [ 30 ] Under the clientele of Erich Mielke and the Stasi, BFC Dynamo would get access to the best aim facilities, equipment, coaching staff and talents. [ 31 ] [ 32 ] [ 15 ] east german football had generally been set up in favor of the designated football clubs ( FC ), who had access to talents within designated areas. [ 15 ] Dynamo Dresden was a center of excellence in Bezirk Dresden, which meant that the club had privileged access to talents in the whole regional zone. [ 21 ] however, BFC Dynamo would be able to draw on talents from all parts of East Germany, except Bezirk Dresden. [ 15 ] [ 33 ] [ 29 ] The cabaret benefited from a nation-wide scout network, supported by numerous aim centers ( TZ ) of SV Dynamo. [ 34 ] BFC Dynamo would have the best fabric conditions in the league and the best team by far. [ 35 ] BFC Dynamo won ten-spot straight titles, from 1979 to 1988. Of all clubs, Dynamo Dresden were the most feign by their achiever, finishing runner-up on six occasions. [ 5 ] however, Dynamo Dresden besides had its patrons. According to Hans-Jürgen Dörner, the club was helped to remain a top club by three local politicians. One of them was Hans Modrow, long time SED First secretary in Bezirk Dresden. [ 36 ] And another one was Manfred Scheler, the point of the Regional Council, who was active in using his connections to provide players with dearth goods and services, such as a cars and apartments. [ 36 ] The club besides benefited from support by Stasi Major General Horst Böhm ( de ), the head of the Stasi in Bezirk Dresden, who took interest in the appointment and judgment of dismissal of trainers and the contracts of players. [ 36 ] [ 37 ] Horst Böhm was a patronize penis of the baseball club. [ 38 ] According to Hans-Jürgen Dörner, Horst Böhm put local patriotism first in the competition with BFC Dynamo. The competition between fans of the two Dynamo clubs besides spread to units within the Stasi Guards Regiment “ Felix E. Dzerzhinsky ”. [ 37 ]
Walter Fritzsch had retired in 1978, and was succeeded by Gerhard Prautzsch, [ 5 ] who was in turn followed by early players Klaus Sammer ( 1983–86 ), Eduard Geyer ( 1986–90 ) and Reinhard Häfner ( 1990–91 ). [ 5 ] The star players of the 1970 were replaced by a raw generation, including Torsten Gütschow, Ulf Kirsten, Matthias Sammer, and Andreas Trautmann, although the baseball club lost three key players in 1981 : Gerd Weber, who along with teammates Peter Kotte and Matthias Müller had been offered a lucrative contract with 1. FC Köln, intended to flee to the West while in Udine for national team match against Italy in April 1981. [ 39 ] The Stasi somehow got scent of this plan, and in January 1981 the three players were arrested at Schönefeld Airport, from where the national team was about leave for Argentina, and banned for biography from the DDR-Oberliga. [ 39 ] Weber was sentenced to two years ‘ captivity. Kotte and Müller, who had decided to stay in Dresden, were however punished for their cognition of Weber ‘s plans. [ 39 ] [ 40 ] Dynamo Dresden managed to win the FDGB-Pokal three times ( 1982 and 1984, 1985 ). [ 3 ] During the 1980s, the baseball club continued to be a regular player in european football, by and large earning respectable results. [ 23 ] In the 1985–86 Cup Winners ‘ Cup, however, they were on the receiving end of a shocking kill against Bayer Uerdingen of West Germany : having won the foremost peg 2–0, they were 3–1 up at half-time in the second peg, when goalkeeper Bernd Jakubowski was injured by Uerdingen ‘s Wolfgang Funkel. Debutant Jens Ramme was introduced, and proceeded to let in six goals, as the team lost 7–3. [ 41 ] In summation to this, striker Frank Lippmann took the opportunity of the match in Krefeld to escape to the west. [ 42 ] Dynamo recorded their best ever european performance in the 1988–89 UEFA Cup, beating AS Roma on the way to a semi-final defeat against VfB Stuttgart. [ 41 ] Their last european campaign was the 1990–91 european Cup, which ended in kill to eventual winners Red Star Belgrade. Dynamo ‘s fans rioted at the moment leg, which resulted in the baseball club being banned from Europe for the comply season. [ 4 ] Dynamo Dresden ended the ten-year long dominance of BFC Dynamo and captured the league entitle in the 1988-89 sason. The championship was celebrated after a 5-0 winnings against 1. FC Union Berlin in front of 27,000 spectators at the Dynamo-Stadion in the last couple day on 3 June 1989. Dynamo Dresden won the league style besides in the 1989-90 temper, adding a cup acquire, to complete a double. [ 4 ] The Stasi ‘s influence over football waned mid-season due to the decrease of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989 and other factors. BFC Dynamo only finished the 1989-90 season in fourth identify. [ 14 ] With the fall of the Berlin Wall, many of the top players in East Germany took the opportunity to head west. BFC Dynamo was the first team to lose a lead actor. The team had lost its top striker Andreas Thom aldready during the winter unwrap 1989-90. Dynamo Dresden lost two star players during the summer of 1990 : Ulf Kirsten and Matthias Sammer joining Bayer Leverkusen and VfB Stuttgart respectively. With german reunion looming, many clubs in the East changed their identify to shed their soviet image, and Dynamo Dresden changed from SG to the more traditional 1. FC. [ 4 ] The DDR-Oberliga besides changed name for its final season : the league, now called the NOFV-Oberliga, was used to determine which places the east german clubs would take in the unite German league. Dynamo Dresden finished second, behind Hansa Rostock, therefore qualifying for the Bundesliga. [ 4 ]

Bundesliga ( 1991–1995 ) [edit ]

Matthias Maucksch made 118 Bundesliga appearances for Dynamo, more than any other player, and was manager of the club from 2009 to 2011. Having been among the top club in the East, Dynamo found life in the Bundesliga much hard, struggling both financially and on the pitch. They spent four years at this level, [ 5 ] during which they were in a near-constant battle against relegation. Their highest place was 13th in 1993–94, but the surveil year they succumbed to the drop, finishing in end place, [ 4 ] having gone through three managers ( Sigfried Held, Horst Hrubesch and Ralf Minge ) during the season. [ 5 ] To add to this, the clubhouse had accumulated debts of more than 10 million DM, and were denied a license to play in the 2. Bundesliga, and had to drop down to the third tier Regionalliga Nordost. [ 4 ] Rolf-Jürgen Otto, the cabaret ‘s president of the united states was jailed for having embezzled around 3 Million DM from the clubhouse. [ 4 ] While many of the stars of the 1980s had moved west, some remained for Dynamo ‘s Bundesliga tenure, including Torsten Gütschow and Hans-Uwe Pilz, while the club was able to attract players from other Eastern clubs, including Olaf Marschall, René Müller and Heiko Scholz. The fall of the wall brought the inflow of Dynamo ‘s beginning foreign players, and the club saw internationals from Australia ( Mark Schwarzer ), Poland ( Piotr Nowak ), Russia ( Stanislav Cherchesov ) and Sweden ( Johnny Ekström ), among others .

Ups and downs ( 1995–2006 ) [edit ]

Dynamo sought to regroup in the Regionalliga, and again looked to former players to manage the team, being led by Hans-Jürgen Kreische ( 1995–96 ), Udo Schmuck ( 1996 ) and Hartmut Schade ( 1996–1998 ), but failed to badly challenge for promotion. In 1998 they finished second gear in the table, but with 60 points : 32 behind champions Tennis Borussia Berlin. 1999–2000 saw a restructure of the Regionalliga : the four leagues were to be reduced to two, and Dynamo would have to finish in the crown 7 to avoid delegating. Having finished 11th in the previous temper they turned to Colin Bell, [ 4 ] an english coach who had had some success with youth football in Germany, but he left in March 2000 after poor results and a player disgust. [ 43 ] Cor Pot, a Dutchman, was brought in to replace him, [ 43 ] and he turned the team round, but it was besides former – they finished in eighth invest, and were relegated to the fourth-tier Oberliga Nordost-Süd. [ 43 ] By this point Dynamo were not even the lead team in Dresden : Dresdner SC had returned after reunion, and finished as runner-up in the Regionalliga Nordost in 2000 .
optimism was high, though, after the way the last season had ended, and the motto “ Wir kommen wieder “ ( we ‘re coming back ), was adopted. however, the Oberliga was now highly competitive with VfB Leipzig, 1. FC Magdeburg and FSV Zwickau besides having been relegated, and Dynamo could n’t match the consistency of their main promotion rivals Magdeburg and Leipzig. A 2–1 frustration against Magdeburg in February ended their promotion chances, and Pot resigned. [ 43 ] With nothing to play for, Dynamo slumped to fifth place. [ 43 ] For the follow season Christoph Franke was brought in a coach, [ 43 ] and led the golf club to promotion – they won the league [ 43 ] with only two defeats, and beat Hertha BSC ‘s military reserve team in a playoff to earn their place in the Regionalliga Nord. [ 43 ] Dynamo ‘s young system was particularly successful during this period, with players including Lars Jungnickel, Silvio Schröter, Maik Wagefeld and Daniel Ziebig going on to play at a higher level. Dynamo finished a respectable 7th in their first season back in the third tier, and followed that with another forwarding, [ 43 ] finishing second behind Rot-Weiß Essen. Life in the 2. Bundesliga began brilliantly, with a 3–1 win against MSV Duisburg, but by the halfway point of their first season they were facing delegating, with entirely 18 points. They recovered strongly in the second half of the season though, and finished in 8th stead, thanks in contribution to signings such as Ansgar Brinkmann, Joshua Kennedy and Klemen Lavric. The 2005–06 season began in a alike way, as Dynamo climbed to third place with a 2–1 win over 1860 Munich in the Allianz Arena, [ 43 ] but this was followed by thirteen matches without a succeed, resulting in the dismissal of Christoph Franke. austrian coach Peter Pacult was brought in, [ 43 ] with results improving temporarily, but Dynamo ultimately still failed to avoid delegating, finishing 15th. [ 43 ]

Consolidation ( 2006–present ) [edit ]

Dynamo were back in the Regionalliga with the immediate aim of promotion, but despite a successful begin, Peter Pacult left the golf club after six matches for a prospect to manage his former club, Rapid Vienna. [ 43 ] He was replaced by Norbert Meier, [ 43 ] but Dynamo could not keep up their promotion bid, and finished seventh, due in separate to inadequate away shape. Another re-organisation of the league structure was looming, and Dynamo knew they ‘d have to finish in the top-10 to qualify for the new national 3. Liga. A number of former star players returned, including Lars Jungnickel, Marek Penksa and Maik Wagefeld, [ 43 ] but results were not reproducible, and Meier was sacked, replaced by former coach Eduard Geyer. [ 43 ] Dynamo secured qualification on the last day, finishing one-eighth, [ 43 ] but Geyer was dismissed due to disagreements with the board. [ 43 ] In 2007, the club reverted to the name SG Dynamo Dresden. [ 43 ] The golf club turned to Ruud Kaiser, a Dutchman with a good repute at young person flat, as Geyer ‘s surrogate. [ 43 ] They played in the first base ever match of the third base Liga, beating Rot-Weiß Erfurt 1–0 with a goal from Halil Savran, [ 43 ] but results were not reproducible, and they could alone finish in mid-table. [ 43 ] The 2009–10 season began badly, and Dynamo were in delegating trouble oneself, so Kaiser was sacked and replaced by Matthias Maucksch, a former player who had had some success with the reserve team. [ 43 ] Maucksch managed to drag the team safely from delegating, and finished the season in 12th place. Maucksch led the team to contention for a playoff place during the 2010–11 season, but was sacked in April after a run of five games without a win, and was replaced by Ralf Loose. [ 44 ] Loose ended the season unbeaten and guarantee third gear place, and a playoff against VfL Osnabrück which Dynamo won 4–2 on sum to earn forwarding to the 2. Bundesliga. [ 45 ] Dynamo Dresden performed well in their first season back in the league. systematically holding a put in the middle of the standings, the team was never in danger of being relegated. After securing a highly memorable 4–3 victory after being down three goals against Bayer Leverkusen in the inaugural round of the 2011–12 DFB-Pokal season, Dynamo was excluded from the 2012/2013 DFB-Pokal due to fan excesses and abuse of fireworks during the moment round equal against Borussia Dortmund ( 0–2 ) in a first test. The prison term was former turned into one Game behind close doors and one away game without own fan support. virtual tickets were offered to reduce the fiscal loss, leading to what was purported to be the first sold-out ghost crippled in history. [ 46 ] [ 47 ] The 2012–13 season started ailing for Dynamo and Ralf Loose was sacked in December 2012 after a 3–0 frustration to VfL Bochum with the team in 15th target. [ 48 ] He was replaced by Peter Pacult, returning to the clubhouse after more than six years. [ 49 ] Dynamo ‘s form improved after Pacult ‘s arrival but the team still finished the league as 16th. [ 50 ] due to this Dynamo had to enter relegation play-offs again after just two seasons, by the way meeting VfL Osnabrück once more, with their roles now reversed. Dynamo emerged triumphant with 2–1 on aggregate and remained in the moment tier for the 2013–14 temper. Pacult was sacked in August 2013 after a poor people starting signal and replaced with Olaf Janßen. [ 51 ] Jansen was ineffective to save the club from the cliff to the 3. Liga after they lost 3–2 at home to relegation rivals Arminia Bielefeld to drop into seventeenth place, [ 52 ] ultimately costing Jansen his job. [ 53 ] Dynamo had drawn half of their matches, winning just five all season. [ 54 ] Under their newfangled coach Stefan Böger, the club completely overhauled the team with the captive of returning to the 2. Bundesliga deoxyadenosine monophosphate soon as possible. In August 2014, the team managed to knock Bundesliga giants FC Schalke 04 out of the first round of the DFB-Pokal, beating them with 2–1. [ 55 ] The team advanced to the third base round after beating VfL Bochum 2–1 [ 56 ] but were ultimately knocked out by Borussia Dortmund. [ 57 ] Böger was sacked in February 2015, [ 58 ] with assistant bus Peter Németh taking over for the end for the temper. The team finished 6th in the 2014–15 season. [ 59 ] Under new coach Uwe Neuhaus, Dynamo went on to have a enormously successful season and officially returned to second-level rival after a 2–2 draw at an away match against FC Magdeburg on 16 April 2016.
